Two friends. Starter asked if a 15 year old could join us.

It wasn’t crowded, so we said sure. We figured he might slow us down a bit, but he’s learning, so we said sure.

Turns out the kid is the nephew of a well respected local PGA
teaching pro.

Kid bombed the ball and had great touch around the greens. Shot a legit 80.

This kid was so polite that we watched our language.

Best not to stereotype young people.

        Not a fan of Shinnecock. Not a hater, just think the greens are a problem for majors. Hensou 5:43pm · 8/1/26
